Cara brings her acclaimed “Coming Home” show to SWANSEA, Taliesin Arts Centre, on Tuesday 1st October (Swansea University)
**UPDATE - "Coming Home" has been shortlisted for ALBUM OF THE YEAR at the Northern Ireland Music Prize**
Autumn and spring tours in 2023 and 2024 marked pivotal milestones in Cara’s career as she unveiled “Coming Home” to rapt audiences, a show featuring her first new material in over six years. The response was nothing short of overwhelming, including sell-out concerts at the Grand Opera House, Belfast - Kings Place, London - The Guildhall, Derry - and St Georges, Bristol - among others.

“Coming Home is a bewitching album…it might just be the best album she has ever released.” - The Irish Independent
“Just divine and affecting” - Mark Radcliffe, BBC Radio 2
“Memoir, poem, guidebook, diary. It is a work of intimacy, love, and affection, unguarded and authentic. It’s the tent of childhoods spent dreaming under a night sky in summer. It’s boundless.” - Maria McManus, Director of Poetry Ireland
Born from a collection of personal poems and the remarkable album and book that followed, this acclaimed live production sees Cara interweave this highly emotive new material with a carefully curated selection of her beloved classics. The result is a tapestry that seamlessly blends storytelling, poetry, and song, effortlessly blurring the lines between them and offering a rare and evocative glimpse into Cara’s world, where she shares personal memories and stories inspired by her native Co. Derry and the remarkable people, places, and customs she holds closest to her heart.
Following the official release of the album and the publication of her book of the same name in March 2024, Cara will be joined by her band and will bring this seminal show to life once again.
